For Buyers
Buying a home, step by step
No jargon, no pressure. Here's exactly what happens, in the order it happens.
- 01
Get pre-approved
Talk to a lender before you look. It takes about a day and it tells you exactly what you can spend. In this market, sellers rarely take an offer without it.
- 02
Make your list
Sit down with Aaron and sort the must-haves from the nice-to-haves — commute, schools, yard, garage. It saves weekends of driving to the wrong houses.
- 03
Tour homes
Aaron sets up showings around your schedule and points out the things photos hide: roof age, grading, water lines, neighbors. You'll know what you're really looking at.
- 04
Write a strong offer
Price is only part of it. Timing, contingencies, and earnest money all matter. Aaron builds an offer that competes without putting you at risk.
- 05
Inspection and appraisal
You get an independent inspection. If something real turns up, Aaron negotiates repairs or credits — or tells you when it's time to walk.
- 06
Close and get the keys
Final walkthrough, signing, keys. Aaron stays on top of the lender and title company so closing day is boring — which is exactly what you want.
